Wiki: SYSTEM LOGS

System Logs are of two different types: Those that are contained within the data base and those that are in files external to the system.

The following logs are within the data base:

Process executions: Contained within P2K_AM_EXECUTIONS and P2K_AM_EXECUTION_RUN_LOGS

System Data Audits: Contained within P2K_AM_CHANGE_LOGS and P2K_AM_CHANGE_LOG_DETAILS

Vertex.log - This log file is updated at the initialization of each vertex server process. It will identify the connection to the data base and then will indicate the log file name it is switching to. This logfile name comes from the IMST screen SITE_CODE field. At that point this file is closed.
Site_Code.log - This log file contains information about the performance of the Vertex server, including any error messages during the execution of tax calculations. To examine this file you must shut down the Vertex server processes.

Maintenance: These files can be deleted periodically - it is recommended quarterly. They are typically only examined where there is a problem with the tax calculation process

When reports are created, the report is stored on the application sever in the directory identified by the IMST screen preference ATTACHMENTS FLDR
